Any issues with ordering 22' for a 2021 yukon SLT? 22' come standard with the denali but the SLT on the GMC website you can't even select the 22'...it doesn't let you. may have to be a dealer facing selection and consumers just can't do it.

i had a 2018 LT and 20's looked great on it.... my 2021 LT had 20's and because of the larger tire size, they looked too small... i got a set of high country take offs (22's) and they have the same visual as 20's on the old model to me... still plenty of meat on the tires with 22's on the new generation
How did you find the 22” dealer take offs? Just got lucky?

I’ve always had 20” wheels on my Tahoe’s. I don’t know any better. Would you go 20” or 22” wheels and why.

the current tire size in the 22” wheels has very few choices 7 I believe while the current 20” size has 20 plus choices for tires


22's for me as well. Rides just fine. Choose good tires, for me it's about how it fills the wheel well more. 20's are great as well. May come down to how much side wall you want for comfort ride factor. I had 20's but bought after-market, that look like stock GM wheels.

20's for me because of added sidewall when I hit a pothole at 75mph, lighter unsprung weight, and they are actually .1 of an inch taller than the 22 inch wheel with the standard tires.

Just ordered a denali, had the 20 vs 22 option choice. Went with the 20's for 2 reasons

1) dealer has multiple sets of 22 take off available for the same cost as the factory option (effectively I can get both sets for the cost of 1)
2) changing to BF AT Ko2's when the truck arrives, cost differential is significant

Last denali had 22's, one before had 20's
